how would you set up a distributed ledger to fairly distribute a deflationary currency? I think Blockchain is a fine way to solve this problem, or was from 2009-2012 or so.

I was commenting on the "propaganda" angle. Edward Bernays himself would agree: advertising is propaganda

i think we are in agreement that the methodology for quantifying agricultural impacts is flawed

[–] tar@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 year ago

that's not true. cattle hardly get any of the global soy crop, and most of what is fed to animals is the byproduct from making soybean oil. cattle are fed about 2% of global soy iirc and only 7% of all the soy that is fed to any animal is whole soybeans. the rest is basically industrial waste.

why does cottonseed, which would otherwise go to waste, get counted against cattle, when that is a conservative of resources?

this is such a great resource to understand why footprints are ridiculous metrics and how interconnected our industrial agriculture systems are.

jokes are protected speech. any amount of actual investigation would have found that they don't own anything like that. fuck government intimidators
